Group permission on an smbfs mount

I have a Windows share mounted to a Redhat LInux server using an smbfs filesystem type. I've specified a uid and a gid but only the owner has write permissions. How can I grant 775 permissions to the owner AND the group?
Here is the fstab entry:
//dvvn-mp-nas.bmt.lamar.edu/LSCO_Work /dvvn-mp-nas/org smbfs rw,credentials=/etc/dvvn-mp-cred.txt,uid=104,gid=557,dmask=0775,fmask=0775 0 0

Hello,
I typically set the desired permissions in linux and then modify
smb.conf with the following added to a share.
example:
create mask = 0775
create mode = 0775
force create mode = 0775
directory mode = 0775
force directory mode = 0775
write list = @workgroup
You could add in other variations and substitute the workgroup name for
something else say... staff, for example. This way is should assign the
read / write permissions for that group.
If you want more specific for users add;
valid users = larry moe curly
public = no
Hope this helps,
Alex
